Pam Severns

Pam Severns is a puppeteer and comedian for stage and screen. She was a producer for PBS on In Their Own Words, a documentary on the life and work of Jim Henson and has worked on shows with Amazon, IFC, MTV, NBC, and other uninteresting jumblings of letters. She also performed on ABC’s revival of The Gong Show and doesn’t want to talk about it.

Her aesthetic is influenced by the vintage and old-timey; with flavors of old Hollywood, top notes of comedy, crooners, MGM, and a vaudeville finish. Best enjoyed with a fun-size bag of M&M’s. She performs frequently in LA and beyond at locales that have included Brookledge Follies, Hot Tub with Kurt and Kristen, LA’s Largo at the Coronet, Puppets for Puppetry at the Jim Henson Company, and the San Francisco Comedy Festival.

In 2018, Pam was awarded a grant by Heather Henson to create a film based on her live work. She resides in Los Angeles with her five plant and in her spare time enjoys writing short biographies in the third person.
